Myrkul talking mad shit for someone who can't move away from a "Wall of fire"

[CrashB]

The funniest part, is Shadowheart's response to that whole intro: "...Oh Shit."

[DarkSpells]

Not only badassness of the whole introduction but voice of JK Simmons, who voices both Thorm and Myrkul. After this I am certain he can easily voice some monster character in the movie. Such a legend of an actor.

[MXMXNTOMORI]

Genuinely left horrified the first time I saw it. SO. FUCKING badass. The music, the voice, the story just UGH. GAMES LIKE THIS.

[BimmWPBS]

Fighting an avatar of Myrkul was a blast, the other two don't really compare compared to this badass intro, the fight itself could of been a little harder

[Cosmic_Fodder]

when i first got to this part, i thought "hes gonna toss himself in the pit and turn into a new boss isnt he?... god damn it"

[Golden_Goob]

honestly this should have been the last of the chosen fights, it was so significantly more climatic than orin or gortash, even as a dark urge where you have to 1v1 orin

[Evergreen_Wizard]

Apostle of Myrkul: “Blah-blah-blah, I am death, I am terror”
Tav: *proceeds to blow up an avatar of a god with explosive barrels*

[vpct]

I'm gonna be straight with y'all . . .

They could have centered the whole game around Ketheric Thorm and I'd have been happy with it. I kinda desperately want to write out the Absolute plot and re-imagine Acts 1 and 2 into their own adventure to use at my own table.

It's not just that Act III is weaker than the first two acts . . . is that the build up and payoff that is Ketheric Thorm is a really, ***REALLY*** tough act to follow.

[LuftwaffeO]

I feel like act 2 was disproportionally more badass than act 3

[Valtremors]

I didn't have Astarion in my party when this happened, but I had the same exact reaction.

[Kuroganemk]

Only thing that sucks about is, that you get his armor but remove the gem from the chest which makes it look less nice.

[andchi]

I was so happy that Myrkul returned in BG3. He's one of my favorite Forgotten Realms gods, and loved his role in Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer.

[ChristophelusPulps]

This intro to Myrkul is much cooler than if you just fight Ketherick. Much more somber yet also sinister, rather than cliche villain like if you fought him instead of succeeding on the redemption dialogue.

[Mimo-yepm]

Bro I thought I was gonna get one-shot when this cinematic happened. Great boss intro.

[RQAlice]

That intro was a spectacle. Goosebumps inducing epicness. Praise Daddy Myrkul.

[lowellperez]

This should be the new "why am I hearing boss music" meme

[domocan]

If only the other chosen had a 2nd phase this cool

[zilkill]

I actually cried when kerheric threw himself into the pool because in my game I had been sympathizing with him and asking him to reconsider and repent but he said he was too far gone he needs to pay for what he’s done and that he did it all for his daughter. What a great villain story.

[CynicalUrge]

At first I did not realize this was an avatar and thought it was actually Myrkul and thought this was a fight I was supposed to escape.
